Aftermarket Wiring Harness

[Grant]

Anyone here ever had any experience with this company:

Similar to Painless Performance, but about half the price. It's a "generic" only setup, but since Painless doesn't have one specific to our cars anyway, you'd have to use their generic one also.

looking to change the entire harness grant? The wiring on that car seemed OK.

Not if I can help it.

I just came across that site while I was looking around, and wondered if anyone knew anything about it.

I think I'll just stick with my plan of finding a good used fuse box for now.

Would this replace the entire front portion, or do you still have to cut and splice?

At the very least you'd have to splice the correct connectors on the ends of the wires. The connections that are there would be generic GM connections.

I just did this on the 72 with the Painless kit. I replaced all wire but the 8" piece out of the wiper motor. Spend some time on the Wurth site getting all the correct connectors. I also used a bunch of the GM type water proof connectors. These incidental connectors and terminals added up to some dough. You are better off not buying kits of connectors imho. Get the correct ones. the only factory plug I was unable to use was that on the light switch. I was unable to find a terminal that would fit into the plastic connector so finally just terminated onto the switch body. I made a brackett which mounted over the brake booster for the fuse box. I took the old fuse box out and ran/terminated the unused wires into that area and made a cap to cover the hole.
